Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation procedure, also known as collagen induction therapy and percutaneous collagen injection. Using precise needles, the device stimulates the replacement of surface skin cells, revealing young, glowing skin underneath. This is an especially effective treatment for those who want to reduce the appearance of scars, wrinkles and pores by rejuvenating the skin under and around them.

How It Works
Microneedling is done using a device that contains fine needles to puncture the skin. By plucking with the tips of these needles, the device creates a controlled area of damage at the surface-level of the skin.
The body recognizes damage, though not enough to cause scabbing or scarring, and activates the skin’s natural healing process. The body triggers production of collagen and elastin, causing improved skin texture and firmness. It reduces scars, pore size, and stretch marks.
